Where to find the weed once you get there? How to hide herb in your car? Whether to grow your own? Who to call if you get busted? Or how something as wonderful as marijuana ever got to be illegal in the first place? Lucky for you, it's all here, in "The Official Pot Smoker's Handbook", the first book of its kind from "High Times", the world's most trusted name when it comes to getting stoned.Since 1974, "High Times" magazine has reported on the smugglers, growers, dealers, artists, activists and everyday heads who make up the marijuana culture, a torch passed down from Chinese herbalists, Islamic hashish-eaters, African herbsman, Jamaican rastas, Pancho Villa's Mexican revolutionaries and New Orleans' legendary jazz-cats, to beatniks, hippies, yippies, punks, ravers and hip-hoppers, and now on to a new generation of stoners, scattered like seeds across the Earth, but globally connected by a common philosophy, an underground etiquette and the ongoing struggle to free the weed. "The Pot Smoker's Handbook" rolls all of this collected wisdom together into a single, indispensable ganja guide-whether you want to light up yourself or just hang out for the contact high.
